Thanks Perry,

I copied the extracted files and here's the output:

[root@NAGIOSXI mibs]# snmpwalk -v 2c -c [snmp-string] [IP Address] F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB::gtmServerStatusAvailState
F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB::gtmServerStatusAvailState."/Common/F5-1" = INTEGER: green(1)
F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB::gtmServerStatusAvailState."/Common/F5-2" = INTEGER: green(1)
F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB::gtmServerStatusAvailState."/Common/srv-servername-1" = INTEGER: green(1)
F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB::gtmServerStatusAvailState."/Common/srv-servername-2" = INTEGER: green(1)

So, I'm not exactly sure what the last two lines are calling, they are servers, not F5 machines. Unless these also run f5 checks that I'm unaware of.

Make sure the permissions on the MIBs are proper:

Code: Select all

chown root.nagios /usr/share/snmp/mibs/F5*
chmod 0664 /usr/share/snmp/mibs/F5*
Then run the plugin again now and it will likely work.

If it doesn't work from the web interface, restart apache as well:

Code: Select all

systemctl restart httpd
For CentOS 8/RHEL 8/Oracle 8:

Code: Select all

systemctl restart httpd php-fpm
Or for Ubuntu/Debian:

Code: Select all

systemctl restart apache2
Then test again.
